Challenge Egg 3

Pollack's Original Egg -->
Another chance to Learn from my mistake.
Do not store egg shells indefinitely. (This is a non-issue if you dye
whole eggs.) And, if you do, make sure they've been washed, prepped and
the ends wax sealed. Otherwise, they can really start to reek...
I threw out quite a few of my semi-prepped shells, carefully wax- and
container- sealed the remainder, and thought that would cover it,
right? Not really. But, by the the time I caught on that the garbage
had been taken out and something still smelled, I'd done too much with
Version 1 to just chuck it.
Version 2 came out much better, except I didn't get the lines placed
well-enough to use the whole design, hence I continued to alter it
slightly.
It's a little weird doing an exact duplicate of an egg design of a
recognized artist, unlike following the patterns in books, or on those
postcards in Surma's basic starter set. Even then, I usually vary the
design a bit, just to make it feel more mine.
